Triadi

What Triadi does

Triadi is a Milan-based Società Benefit founded in 2022 as a spin-off of Politecnico di Milano's Tiresia research center. The company provides strategic advisory, capacity building, and technology development services focused on sustainability, ESG compliance, and impact measurement for financial institutions (asset managers, banks, insurance), third-sector organizations, enterprises/SMEs, and public administration. Service delivery is organized across three areas: Sustainable & Impact Finance (SFDR/CSRD/Taxonomy compliance, impact measurement infrastructure for credit portfolios), Sustainability & Impact Assessment (Theory of Change, stakeholder engagement, social balance sheets for the third sector), and Business Model Transformation (CSRD compliance, Benefit Company transitions). The company's core technology proposition is the ADALTIM platform, a European Commission-funded consortium project (17 partners across 5 European countries) developing an AI-assisted independent impact rating model to measure social and environmental performance beyond traditional ESG metrics.

Revenue is generated through project-based professional services engagements with no publicly disclosed pricing. Go-to-market is anchored in direct enterprise advisory relationships, supplemented by content marketing (blog, newsletter), earned media (Corriere della Sera, La Repubblica, Il Sole 24 Ore, Rai3), speaking engagements, and academic credibility derived from the Politecnico di Milano affiliation. Triadi operates with approximately 10 internal professionals, drawing on a broader Triadi-Tiresia ecosystem of 40+ researchers, and disclosed approximately EUR 1M in 2024 revenue growing at a 61% compound rate since founding. The November 2025 leadership transition — Nader Tayser appointed CEO, Irene Bengo as President, Giulietta Paraboni on the board — signals a formal pivot from academic founder-led entity to operations-led scale-up.
